Toyota OEM Rim Suggestions!?!

I'm saving up some money to buy some rims, but I need help deciding what I should get so I know how much to save.

I wanted to get some OEM Toyota Rims, I liked the 07 Camry SE Rims, what else would you guys say looks good with 98 Camry Beige? If I could afford them BBS RK's would be my first choice, but they cost a pretty penny.

Any suggestions on OEM Toyota Rims?

Thanks!

For price reference, there are some new '07 SE Camry wheels on eBay right now...

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/TOYOT...spagenameZWDVW

Unfortunately, they don't list shipping cost. Also, I don't know what the offset is on those.

Are you wanting to go 17", 18", or have you determined that yet? Are you just going for looks, or are you concerned at all about weight, etc.? Do you have any budget in mind at all?

There are about a million wheels out there ranging in price from less than $100 each to WAAAAYYYYY more than that, so it's a pretty wide open question if you don't narrow your criteria down a little. And of course, everyone has their personal opinion on what looks good.

17's are probably what I will go with, 18 are too big and tires are too expensive. I dont care about the weight, something that looks good and complements the car.

Money wise I am a college student so I dont want to spend too much, but I dont want to be el cheapo!

Reason I am looking to stick with OEM is the car is under my parents name and they dont like me putting money into unless that car needs it. I.e...oil change, maintenance things, etc. I think they would'nt mind if they saw toyota on the rim, there less likely to tell me to take it back. I know it sounds stupid, but thats my parents.

id say try yopur local pic a part, junk yard, etc. also look for places that sell used rims/ries/hubcaps. for me a brand new set of rims and tires ran me about 200 more for a set of 17s then a whole set of 14 inch tiresd woulda cost...and since i needed the tires anyways.... thats usually a good argument to use on parents it worked on my wife

I understand. Well, if you want to stay OEM, I'd just search around on eBay. If you do a search on "camry 17 wheels" for example, you'll get several hits with OEM rims like the SE wheels that I posted, or like these for example...

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/4-TOY...spagenameZWDVW

Those are Avalon wheels, but they'll fit the Camry. Obviously you could search for Avalon wheels also, or Solara wheels, and you might find something that's not specifically listed for the Camry that you like.

If you wanted to go even less expensive, and go down to a 16" wheel (cheaper tires), these BBS wheels would look good and they were a Toyota optional wheel at one time...

check the forsale section here too, they pop up all the time. keep in mind though that they are typically expensive and heavy. for about the same amount u can get a more custom look and save the weight. just my .02 cents.

btw, if ur lookin for a BBS look ill be selling the wheels u see in the sig within a week or two in the f/s section...sorry mods

Thanks for all the replies!

Has anyone seen any Gen of Camry with 07 SE Rims except the new Gen? I have had my eyes on them for a while but I don't know how they would look. Unfortunately I am not good at using Photoshop either!

Does anyone have any recommendations on any OEM wheels that will good with a 98 Camry thats Beige?

Check out these TRD Rims, I dont know if they are real or what:

Those TRD rims are the 18" TRDs that you can get for the current Camry.

These wheels at TireRack.com are very similar in style except they're 5 spoke instead of 6 spoke. You can use their "View on Vehicle" utility to see them on a Gen4. Use a little imagination to picture the 6 spoke. I think the SE rims would look good.

Thanks for the link! Those look great. (I looked at 'em on a 3.5) SE 17's FTW.

I don't know if you were looking for a specific size, but my Camry has the OEM rims that I find quite attractive. Since they are only 15", tires can be had for cheap and the ride is excellent. Here is a picture of the rims I have:
